The original name, *iceberg-catalog-migrator*, suggests that it supports
migrations between any Iceberg catalogs. Since we are placing it under
Apache Polaris, we wanted to incorporate "Polaris" into the name. However,
naming it *polaris-catalog-migrator* might imply that it is exclusively for
migrating tables to or from the Polaris catalog.

We need a better name or should consider keeping just
*apache/iceberg-catalog-migrator*
Package names in the source can be `org.apache.polaris.catalog.migrator`

Suggestions are welcome!
